Need I say more?”

    “Don't touch any of my weapons without my permission."

    “Malachi scowled. "I don't remember the Clave inviting you into the Glass City, Magnus Bane."
    "They didn't," Magnus said. "Your wards are down."
    "Really?" the Consul's voice dripped sarcasm. "I hadn't noticed."
    Magnus looked concerned. "That's terrible. Someone should have told you." He glanced at Luke. "Tell him the wards are down.”

    “Albus Severus," Harry said quietly, so that nobody but Ginny could hear, and she was tactful enough to pretend to be waving to Rose, who was now on the train, "you were named for two headmasters of Hogwarts. One of them was a Slytherin and he was probably the bravest man I ever knew.”

    “You guessed? You must have been pretty sure, considering you could have killed me."
    "I was ninety percent sure."
    "I see," Clary said. There must have been something in her voice, because he turned to look at her. Her hand cracked across his face, a slap that rocked him back on his heels. He put his hands on his cheek, more in surprise than pain.
    "What the hell was that for?"
    "The other ten percent.”
    Cassandra Clare, City of Bones

    Lewis Carroll
    “But I don’t want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.
    "Oh, you can’t help that," said the Cat: "we’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad."

    “You'd think people had better things to gossip about," said Ginny as she sat on the common room floor, leaning against Harry’s legs and reading the Daily Prophet. "Three Dementor attacks in a week, and all Romilda Vane does is ask me if it’s true you’ve got a Hippogriff tattooed across your chest."
    Ron and Hermione both roared with laughter. Harry ignored them.
    What did you tell her?"
    I told her it's a Hungarian Horntail," said Ginny, turning a page of the newspaper idly. "Much more macho."
    Thanks," said Harry, grinning. "And what did you tell her Ron’s got?"
    A Pygmy Puff, but I didn’t say where.”
    J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

    Cassandra Clare
    “Isabelle drifted over, Jace a pace behind her. She was wearing a long black dress with boots and an even longer cutaway coat of soft green velvet, the color of moss. "I can't believe you did it!" she exclaimed. "How did you get Magnus to let Jace leave?"
    "Traded him for Alec," Clary said.
    Isabelle looked mildly alarmed. "Not permanently?"
    "No," said Jace. "Just for a few hours. Unless I don't come back," he added thoughtfully. "In which case, maybe he does get to keep Alec. Think of it as a lease with an option to buy."
    Isabelle looked dubious. "Mom and Dad won't be pleased if they find out."
    "That you freed a possible criminal by trading away your brother to a warlock who looks like a gay Sonic the Hedgehog and dresses like the Child Catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang?" Simon inquired. "No, probably not.”

    “Ah" said Dumbledore gently, "Yes I thought we might hit that little snag!"
    "Snag?" said Fudge, his voice still vibrating with joy. "I see no snag, Dumbledore!"
    "Well," said Dumbledore apologetically, "I'm afraid I do."
    "Oh, really?"
    "Well it's just that you seem to be labouring under the delusion that I am going to -- come quietly. I am afraid I am not going to come quietly at all, Cornelius. I have absolutely no intention of being sent to Azkaban. I could break out, of course -- but what a waste of time, and frankly, I can think of a whole host of things I would rather be doing.”
    J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

    “I don't want tea," said Clary, with muffled force. "I want to find my mother. And then I want to find out who took her in the first place, and I want to kill them."
    "Unfortunately," said Hodge, "we're all out of bitter revenge at the moment, so it's either tea or nothing.”
    Cassandra Clare, City of Bones

  • #21

    "I don't like it."
    He grinned. "It stays, Angel.”

    J.K. Rowling
    “Why were you lurking under our window?"
    "Yes - yes, good point, Petunia! What were you doing under our windows, boy?"
    "Listening to the news," said Harry in a resigned voice.
    His aunt and uncle exchanged looks of outrage.
    "Listening to the news! Again?"
    "Well, it changes every day, you see," said Harry.”
    J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

    Cassandra Clare
    “But-" Maia, still looking at Alec and Magnus, broke off and rasied her eyebrows. Simon turned to see what she was looking at - and stared.
    Alec had his arms around Magnus and was kissing him full on the mouth. Magnus, who appeared to be in a state of shock, stood frozen. Several groups of people - Shadowhunters and Downworlders alike - were staring and whispering. Glancing to the side, Simon saw the Lightwoods, their eyes widen, gaping at the display. Maryse had her hand over her mouth.
    Maia looked perplexed. "Wait a second," she said. "Do we all have to do that, too?”
    Cassandra Clare, City of Glass

    Cassandra Clare
    “Sebastian just smiled. “I could hear your heart beating,” he said softly. “When you were watching me with Valentine. Did it bother you?”
    “That you seem to be dating my dad?” Jace shrugged. "You’re a little young for him, to be honest.”
    “What?” For the first time since Jace had met him, Sebastian seemed flabbergasted.”
    Cassandra Clare, City of Glass

    Richelle Mead
    “Belikov is a sick, evil man who should be thrown into a pit of rabid vipers for the great offense he commited against you this morning."
    "Thank you." I said primly. Then, I considered. "Can vipers be rabid?"
    "I don't see why not. Everything can be. I think. Canadian geese might be worse than vipers, though."
    "Canadian geese are deadlier than vipers?"
    "You ever try to feed those little bastards? They're vicious. You get thrown to vipers, you die quickly. But the geese? That'll go on for days. More suffering."
    "Wow. I don't know whether I should be impressed or frightened that you've thought about all of this.”
    Richelle Mead, Frostbite

  • #29
    C.S. Lewis
    “That's the worst of girls," said Edmund to Peter and the Dwarf. "They never can carry a map in their heads."

    “That man is such a damn turd monkey."
    "Grandma!" I said.
    "Oh, Zoeybird, did I just call your mother's husband a damn turd monkey out loud?"
    "Yes, Grandma, you did."
    She looked at me, her dark eyes sparkling. "Good.”
    P.C. Cast
